This allows us to design compliant and effective commercial emergency lighting systems suited to your premises.
Systems may include:
All installations are completed in line with current emergency lighting regulations, BS 5266 standards, and fire safety requirements.
Regular emergency lighting testing is essential for ensuring systems operate correctly during power failures and emergency evacuations.
Without routine inspections, faults may remain undetected until systems are needed in a real emergency situation.
We provide scheduled emergency lighting inspections and compliance testing for:
Testing helps identify:
Our engineers carry out testing in accordance with current emergency lighting testing requirements, ensuring systems remain compliant and operational.
Following inspection, we provide detailed reporting, compliance documentation, and recommendations for any remedial works required.
UK businesses and property owners are responsible for ensuring emergency lighting systems remain fully operational and compliant.
Typical emergency lighting testing requirements include:
Testing requirements may vary depending on the building type, occupancy levels, and fire risk assessment findings.
Regular inspection and servicing helps businesses comply with fire safety obligations while maintaining safe evacuation routes throughout the property.
Ongoing emergency lighting maintenance is essential for maintaining compliance and ensuring systems continue operating effectively over time.
At Procure Direct, we provide planned emergency lighting servicing programmes tailored to your building, compliance obligations, and operational schedules.
Our maintenance services include:
Buildings with poorly maintained emergency lighting systems may fail inspections, compromise evacuation procedures, and increase safety risks during emergencies.
Our engineers work around your operational requirements to minimise disruption, including evenings, weekends, shutdown periods, and out-of-hours servicing where required.
Commercial buildings must comply with relevant fire safety legislation and emergency lighting regulations to ensure occupants can evacuate safely during emergencies.
Emergency lighting systems should comply with:
Under fire safety legislation, the responsible person for a building must ensure emergency escape lighting systems remain operational, properly maintained, and regularly tested.
Compliance is particularly important for buildings with:
Routine emergency lighting servicing and testing helps businesses demonstrate compliance while supporting wider fire safety management procedures.
Different buildings require different emergency lighting solutions depending on occupancy, operational use, and evacuation requirements.
Maintained emergency lighting remains illuminated at all times and continues operating during power failure. This type of system is commonly used in:
Non-maintained emergency lighting only activates during mains power failure. These systems are commonly installed in workplaces, offices, warehouses, and industrial buildings where standard lighting is normally sufficient during operation.
Selecting the correct system is essential for maintaining compliance and ensuring safe evacuation procedures.
Our engineers regularly identify faults and compliance issues during inspections and servicing.
Common reasons systems fail include:
Identifying these issues early helps prevent emergency system failure and reduces the risk of non-compliance.
Many businesses are unaware their emergency lighting system may no longer meet current standards until an inspection takes place.
Signs your system may require inspection or upgrading include:
Older systems may also fail to meet current emergency lighting regulations, particularly if building layouts or occupancy usage has changed over time.
Different sectors face different operational and compliance challenges when managing emergency lighting systems.
Schools, academies, and colleges often require testing and maintenance during holiday periods to minimise disruption. Emergency lighting systems must support safe evacuation across classrooms, corridors, assembly halls, and communal areas while meeting safeguarding and occupancy requirements.
Office environments often require out-of-hours emergency lighting testing to avoid disrupting staff and business operations. Compliance is particularly important for open-plan offices, shared workspaces, and multi-tenant buildings.
Industrial environments typically require robust emergency escape lighting across larger operational areas, storage aisles, loading bays, and forklift routes where limited natural light and higher operational risks may exist.
Healthcare facilities and public-access buildings often require enhanced evacuation planning due to occupancy levels, accessibility requirements, and continuous building usage.
